1 Introduction Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Dial Routing Interface The Dial Routing interface is a virtual interface that distributes IP traffic via a pool of “Dial PPP” interfaces. A series of connections is defined in the configuration of the said interface such as the Dial PPP interfaces pool name. Each pro- file has an identifier (ID) which uniquely identifies this as well as a set of associated parameters (called number, user and password).
1 Introduction Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise 1.4 Configuring correctly • Create as many PPP interfaces as B channels or modem connections you wish to reserve for the connections (you create as many simultaneous connections as you wish to have). • Create the Dial Routing interface.

1 Introduction Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise • You need to configure as AT interfaces as many serial lines as simultaneous connections to PSTN destinations are required without surpassing the number of modems you have. Additionally you need to create a PPP interface for each AT interface.

The first step is to configure the name of the Pool corresponding to the interface. This pool name joins the interface with the PPP interfaces that can be used to carry out the connections.

For each destination you need to configure a telephone number, a user and a password which shape the profile for this destin- ation.

1 Introduction Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise 1.5.3 Configuring the AT Interfaces A possible next step would be to configure the AT interfaces so that the installed modems operate correctly. The ne- cessary parameters are as follows: • Speed: The possible speeds that can be configured are as follows: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200.
1 Introduction Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise For American standards, it will be necessary to at least configure the standard and the SPIDs of the two circuits. If you do not know these values, please consult your telecommunications operator. In the following example, you can see how to configure these two parameters where the standard is configured to NI- 1 which is the most common for American standards.
